ATV's w/Tracks
« on: January 04, 2016, 10:03:12 AM »
Does anybody have an ATV outfitted with tracks?  Interested in purchasing but spoke to a salesman at Mattracks in Minnesota and he told me my Kodiak 400 is to small to put track on. Just curious if anybody has experience with these  Thanks, Ken.

Ya you need a 750 min.  It takes a lot more power to turn the tracks.

We run a lot of tracks in Alaska and they do take a bunch of power. You could possibly clutch for it, but it will be quite the load on a 400.

used Camoplast tracks in Idaho during a cougar hunt. The Polaris Ranger would go anywhere and they were awesome. THey went anywhere in the snow just like a snowmobile.  I was told they are the best and can be used all year long. Talked with the guys in Ellensburg and they said the same.  5K for a set.  Thinking about it for my 900 Polaris Crew.

Check into a Dalton Clutch kit for your ATV, if they make them for yours. $150 installed on my 500 Can Am and it puts more power to the ground with better hookup.
I couldn't care less about what anybody says..............

They will set you up with the best product/system at the best price. Also, IMO the 700cc class atv is the minimum. Power steering is really nice in deep heavy snow.

I have a set of Camoplast for my can-am 650. The first install is kind of a pain, after that its just a little more work than changing the wheels and tires. They will let you go any where in the snow but make the machine very top heavy. DO NOT side hill in the snow.
